Milwaukee die grinder

hey dik which one did you buy and how do you like it. I’m looking at picking one up in either 12v or 18v. I have many batteries for both.

I don't own either, but my good friend Cory uses the m12 right angle and m18 straight at work. He likes both, but I really hear him sing the praises of the m12. He brought it out to the sugarbush a couple weeks ago for me to test drive. Nice tool for sure. If you buy it right now at HD I think you can get it on the Buy More Save More deal. Get to $500 to get the $150 off. Then return what you don't want. Ends up being about 28-30% off retail.

Fleet farm is 10 dollars cheaper then Home Depot retail. But thanks for the feedback Ryan. This helps me decide but now do I want right angle or straight.

I have the 12v it was the only one I saw they made
I like it so far and I use it a lot with 2 inch sand disks and with burrs
I usually keep it on 1 or 2 on the speed settings
It will shut down if you use a lot of pressure but it is a safety they built into it
I use it for metal fab prep and for sharpening mower blades mostly

That's in my milwaukee list.

I’ve had the m12 right angle for several months now. Absolutely no complaints what so ever.

I can get this kit in the top of the photo from my gear wrench buddy. Both bare tools plus the battery abs bag are free. Not sure I need both but thinking about the kit so I have options

the straight one would be handy too

I was thinking the same thing. Thankfully I don’t have to pay the price in the ad. Just have to decide if I want to the spend the money on both or one

I will have these tomorrow and will get to try them out this weekend.

Got my Milwaukee set Friday and just spent some time lengthening some bar slots this morning. Glad I bought both as I could leave each one with different burrs. These are a nice addition to the garage.
